18 Solve a riddle: Put your heads together and figure out the meaning of the number of the Beast. It’s a human number: 666.
This is perhaps the most frustrating verse in the bible, to me. The way its worded....especially here in the The Message, makes it sound like I should be able to figure out what this means. This is the first time that John has challenged the reader to figure it out. All the symbolism.....all the images of craziness, he never once told us to figure it out. And then this.
What does it mean? I guess I want to know, so I can avoid it. Is it the WWW...of the internet? Is it something else? Is it some sort of chipped credit card system? It makes me crazy!
